| You are arguing that childhood trauma doesn't have a causal relationship to ADHD? |

| I would argue the relationship is in the other direction. People with ADHD often have childhood trauma caused by the way others treated their ADHD symptoms in childhood. |

| 100%. it's genetic, what's unclear about that? https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8328933/ |

| ▲ | unyttigfjelltol 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | An experience that produces grit and resilience in one person, in another produces visits to a mental health practitioner 20 years later. The practitioner is confused and writes an article: did the event produce the long-delayed visit, or the person’s inherent way of interacting with the world? To state the question correctly, is to imply the answer. Declaring all events that subjectively motivate a mental health visit as “trauma” is to allow private realities and have the patient determine the standard of care. Factually, we all know that if someone insists on holding onto a minor slight for an extended time, this is rarely about the event itself. The mental health community got waaaayyyy off track with this radical expansion of the concept of trauma. |
